FILMWORK
I am US-based cinematographer, editor, and producer specializing in conservation, social impact, and wildlife stories. I have worked on multiple award-winning character-driven documentaries and bring over a decade of backcountry experience to each shoot.
I am a certified Wilderness First Responder, able to travel internationally for work, and have a background in experiential education to create K-12 programming for impact distribution campaigns. I have my MFA in Film and Media Arts from American University with a concentration in Wildlife, Environmental, and Social Impact Filmmaking.
This is a collection of my previous work, and I am available for hire on new projects.
My reel is available upon request.
